Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double buggy could be a great option when you have twins or children who are close in age. They're smaller than side-by-side buggies, and ideal for maneuvering narrow spaces like doorways, on public transport and on rough terrain.

Many also convert into travel systems that use two carrycots or car seats. They are typically heavier, longer and less stable than a single pushchair.

Convertible

Whether you're looking for a convertible stroller that converts from single to double or to add another seat to an existing one, there's a variety of options available. The Vista V2 from UPPAbaby is large, gorgeous stroller that easily converts from a single to double by adding the rumble seat (available separately). It is more expensive and less maneuverable due to the fact that the second seat is located in front of the first seat. Nuna Demi Grow offers a similar option however, it doesn't have storage underneath the seat when used as a double stroller.

Other options include all-terrain twin buggies, as well as fixed-wheel joggers that can accommodate two children. These are more expensive, however, they are designed to last longer on rough terrain and come with more expensive resales.

Independent seat recline

If you require a double pram stroller buggy that is able to transport children of various age groups, then you'll require a model with an recline that is independent for both seats. This allows your child of a higher age to relax while the baby is sleeping in a bassinet and reverse.

You'll also need to think about the size of the stroller as this will impact how easy it is to traverse doors and public transportation. If you have very narrow doors, it could be a good idea to consider a side-byside pushchair, such as the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the advantage of having a footprint comparable to a single buggy, however it can use two seats and car seat adaptors.

tandem double stroller buggies are generally a little longer than side-by-side models, and aren't as difficult to maneuver around kerbs however they can be able to accommodate a wider range of seat/carrycot/car seat combinations making them a good option for twins or siblings of different age. They can also be more expensive than single-to-double buggies, but are worth the purchase if you plan to keep it for many years and have a good amount of resale value if you decide to sell it when your children are out of it.

Another thing to look for is if the seat backs are able to recline independently of each other since this will allow you to put your child in the most optimal position for naps or watching. This is especially important when you have a child younger than in the rear seat, who will be inclined to lie down and relax while the older child wants to sit up and look around their surroundings.

A few brands have an exclusive seat design that allows the back seat to fully recline into a nearly flat position that is perfect for newborns. For instance, the iCandy Orange has raised stadium-style seating that can recline both the toddler seat that comes with it and the add-on RumbleSeat into multiple positions to give your kids a the option of deciding where to sit, as well as providing an excellent UPF 50+ canopy that has windows that can be seen from afar.

Larger than twin buggies

They allow you to move around without having to worry about your children touching each other. They're typically a larger with one seat in front of the other. The seats can be reclined fully for infants, or put in an upright position for toddlers.

Another option is the iCandy Wave, which has an easy one-click fold and is able to be used in mono or duo mode. Its clever frame can be expanded widthwise to accommodate a second seat and it can be used with two car seats or carrycots so it's an excellent option for older siblings that wish to sit together and share the view. It's a bit longer than other models, but it's easy to steer and has soft suspension to tackle the kerbs.

There are plenty of 3-wheeler tandems with inline wheels that provide stability and fast steering. Take a look at Phil and Teds inline models as well as iCandy Peach and Pear buggies. Most of them can be folded into the size of one buggie which is useful if you struggle with storage at home or frequently need to transport it into and out of your car when you travel on public transportation.

It's worth bearing in mind that a large double buggy will feel heavier and bulkier than a smaller single buggy So make sure it's what you need before you purchase. You'll be taking it off and on subways, trains and buses frequently, so it must be simple to use and manage. It is possible that you will need to move the car seat on and off while taking your child to school or the nursery.

The best time to start is when you are born.

Whether you're expecting twins or have another child after your first, you're likely to require a pushchair that fits the entire family. cheap double buggy buggies are typically slightly heavier, bulkier and cost more than single strollers, but they can also be easier to maneuver in narrower entrances or around obstacles like curbs. They are also compatible with piggyback ride-along boards (either from the manufacturer or via an accessory purchase) so you can transport three children at the same time.

Tandem pushchairs place one child in front the other. They are a good choice if your children are close in age and are able to get along. They're not 100% secure. Siblings sitting side-by-side can punch or kick each other and children of different heights can fight over who sits higher. This issue can be resolved by a tandem high-low model that elevates the seat at the rear. Your child's older one isn't seated at the bottom of the car and won't have much of an eye.
